Jack Thompson sends 15-year old son to buy BioShock from Best Buy

Anti-violent video games lawyer Jack Thompson doesn’t spend his free time educating parents about M-rated games. Instead, he sends his own 15-year old son in a mission to get a copy of Take-Two’s BioShock (Xbox 360, PC    ) something that should be in the hands of adults. Back when the child was 10, he also made him purchase Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

According to the email Thompson sent Joystiq, the ace attorney is trying to prove that “hyperviolent and sex-themed Manhunt 2 (Wii, PSP, PS2) and Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360, PS3) will be widely sold to kids of all ages despite promises by Take-Two, the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB), and major retailers.”

Thompson also demands to fire the Best Buy‘s store manager and the female clerk who sold the game to his son. “The entire video game age rating system is a fraud perpetrated upon American families from sea to shining sea,” he said after using his own child to demonstrate such fraud.
